Sean Grande will not be Gorman's replacement

Just heard on the radio that the next TV play by play guy to replace Mike Gorman will not be Sean Grande but instead Drew Carter?

Awful decision here IMO, Grande is amazing - and to be quite candid i've been enjoying his calls more than Gorman's lately. Not sure how to put it into words but I feel like he handles Scalabrine better where Gorman has more or less been tolerating him the past few seasons.

Either way this is disappointing news to hear this morning, I was really looking forward (and assumed that) Grande was the obvious next guy in line. 

Roy H.:
I'm not familiar with Drew Carter.  I agree, Grande is excellent.

BitterJim:
I was really hoping for Grande. I'm not at all a fan of naming someone as Mike's successor when they've never even called a Celtics' game.

Carter seems fairly raw?

Radio speculation was that the league is gravitating towards young guys - I believe they said he is 26.. and they assumed that it was a cost savings move.

I find the latter hard to believe as I can't imagine your regional play by play guy is really breaking the bank of a multi billion dollar franchise.
